    I hope the sale is ASAP - I can't wait that long!!

    Has anyone been able to use their NO7 Voucher on the xmas make up like

    http://www.boots.com/en/No7-Beneath-the-Morning-Skies-Eye-Palette_1238094/

    I saw loads in my local but there was a sign saying it was not part of the 3 for 2 promotion but i didn't check if it was also excluded from the voucher offer as online it is included in 3 for 2.

    It should be usable on this palette as although it's from Christmas, it's part of their standard range and isn't a Christmas gift as such (and so isn't in the 50% sale either).

    Was this a large boots ? went into my local yesterday and there was only half of the stock they had last week & I'm sure they haven't sold it all as whenever I went in no one was really looking at it let alone buying it.

    Thanks

    Can I return my unopened fragrance gift set which i bought after xmas and then rebuy at 75% off?


    If you don't embarrass easily, you can try. People have done it before, but it's really down to the SA. It's understandable if they refuse, and if you'll be mortified if they say no, don't do it (and a few SAs lack basic customer service skills and may be rude about it). Otherwise, ask nicely and you might be in luck. ;)

    I should add, I'm assuming you meant you want to rebuy the one you just returned. If there are more on the shelf at 75% off, then you can just buy that and return the other one for what you paid no problem as long as you have a receipt. The issue is if there are none left on the shelf, and you want to return and rebuy the same set, iyswim.

    hiya all, saw my frend who works in boots- no news as yet. she says they usually get a last min email either close of business today (mon) or by lunchtime tues.

    i said to her theres still loads stuff left- and she said that the larger stores have been getting stocks from the smaller stores as head office reckon people will go to the larger branches due to choice and amount that they have! so the smaller branches prolly wont have out left- and for those of u that reporting that stock seems to have gone from shelves - this is y! :mad:

    as soon as i hear out, forumite- u will be the 1st to no as always! :)
